proxychains DNS leaks stopped

[Kyle Williams]

Are you saying that the "proxy_dns" option in the proxychains.conf is in
fact leaking DNS request?from the proxychains.conf file:
"
# Proxy DNS requests - no leak for DNS data
proxy_dns
"

I thought it would resolve against the specified SOCKS 4/5 proxy.  Is this
not happening?
